come on middle of the day build...crosses fingers.

Cyan has a lot of **** goin on. I had no clue he was so involved in so many different phones. I started trolling around different phone forums after looking at the retina display on an Iphone, made me want to look at other phones in general (wow is all i can say about that high res tft but it def needs to be bigger.), and he has froyo builds going on right now for multiple phones. I dont see how he manages to keep making nightly builds. I dont see how he has the time. Thank you cyan for your dedication to this build, it is quite amazing so far, can't wait to see what you have in store for the camera tonight as it already works great for me. Posted 720p vids of my kid already today on qik

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KERKEDAGAIN:
called a "nightly" build (as opposed to a daily driver) but it's holding pretty solidly. As regards the Ava comparison, CM adds a LOT more tweaks he/they've developed over the years that are invaluable (i.e. the 180 degree rotate, FINALLY) IMO

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -shift-:
yea, same here. i'm using the stock battery with stock cpu speeds running on the latest nightly. definite improvement over what i got when i was overclocking to 1152. i've been unplugged for 15.5 hours with 28% left and i know i can ride that until tonight, easy.

i think i'll test out the cm6-snap kernel with tonight's build and my 1750 mah battery and see if i can last that long at work tomorrow.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdcrds:
Before i buy this does it really make a difference and why? what is so different about it then ADW.

I am not up to date on these things but would like to know why and what the difference is thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myndwire:
he actually doesn't maintain *all* of them, but most. he's able to since most of the branches merge into ALL ports, which works amazingly for developing so many different ports. i know some other guys are maintaining at least half of them give or take, so it really makes for a verbose code tree. Git is awesome, and the automated build process they use (buildbot) makes it pretty hands-off for developing.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnstarz:
based on his usage of the word "obliterates", i think it's pretty fair to assume that it does really make a difference.

you can download the free version from the market. same thing as the plus version, except it doesn't have the sense widgets. definitely try it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnacles10:
Do you guys read the newest build in your settings?

All the fixes seem to be working with mine which have come out over the builds, but in my phone status settings I read 720 build
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myndwire:
totally understandable question, i had the same one until this afternoon. overall, other than the fact that LP doesn't FC all the time like ADW does, it also has the ability to completely customize the launcher buttons and layout. the options are laid out WAY better, it's a heck of a lot faster, and the plus version (2.99) unlocks his sense-like widgets that he's developing. also, version updates are released about 2-3x more often. it seems LP has been developed and matured a heck of a lot more as well, being one of the only 5-star apps i've found. overall i'm VERY happy to have switched and paid 2.99 for it. i don't particularly care for the bookmarks/contacts widgets, but his forthcoming news/etc widgets will be pretty useful.

grab it now, before the price hikes up, or just use the freebie version, which is only missing his new widgets. the launcher itself is hands down the best i've tried.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsallsubliminal:
adw is cool but doesn't give a "complete" experience IMO. Sure the horizontal app drawer is def nice, but I like the sleek 3d drawer, notification icons in the bottom dock(customizable image background of dock), and the widgets from launcher pro plus are similar in style to the HTC Sense widgets, which i liked but didn't like sense.

Also, in Launcher pro, you get the "zoom from middle" and "zoom to center when returning to homescreen" effects. I understand this is a 2.1 and froyo thing, but Every other ROM (besides this) doesn't have it implemented and Launcher Pro does that for ya flawlessly.

Thats why i enjoy launcher pro.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rippley05:
Have to get his plus version from his website. It doesn't have sense widgets but he is working on "sense" like widgets for the paid version. He has already made the people widget and I'm looking forward to the coming bookmark widget.

I haven't tested Launcherpro here since I had to nand back to an older rom due to the facebook sync borking my contacts ( Some Amanda info was tied in with a Mandy info, lost a phone number and texts got tied together and sent to the wrong person. Complete disaster)

Anyway, looking forward to this rom getting more polished so I can test out LP and hopefully a virtually bug free CM rom~!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnstarz:
i've always wondered why cyan uses adw instead of the stock AOSP launcher if his goal is to create a "pure" AOSP rom. if people want adw, let them download it from the market themselves. things that are easily obtained through the market shouldn't be included.

Can we get some instructions added to the OP about how to get the crash logs?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenny:
Hmm a lot of people are having issues with SetCPU, I find that surprising.

Yesterday I got 18 hours of battery life before I plugged in the charger (7%)

Display was on for over 3 hours

~45 minutes of video played

~20 minutes of voice calls

~90 minutes of music played

Not saying that's amazing numbers, but that's respectable imo. It's O/C'd and more so than most of the other profiles I've seen set up this far (as in it lowers the freq at 25/15% instead of 50/25%).

I guess I can just uninstall it and see how much changes... :-\
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myndwire:
just b/c it's a better-thank-stock launcher that's also open source (he pulls straight from their GIT tree). the stock one has to suck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dooksuks:
I think the main problem people are having with the battery is that they are judging the ROM based on the first couple of hours after installing. To get even close to good idea of how battery performance is going to be will take two or three days of use and charging.

People see their battery drop quickly initially and all of sudden the sky is falling.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -shift-:
i didn't have as much problems with battery life (though they were still present) as i did with the random rebooting to the boot animation. to what frequency did you overclock? mine was maxed at 1152, with various profiles underclocking due to low battery/screen off/high temp..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jabbawalkee:
He doesn't make nightly builds. He makes the commits to github then a BUILDBOT automatically makes the nightly builds each night :) but, yes, he sure does work his ass of.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saywhat4118:
launcherpro is pretty good but one thing i really miss from the adw launcher is the gesture controls/options. like being able to swipe up anywhere on the screen to pull up the app drawer or swiping down which brings down the notification bar. because of that function i keep going back to adw even though i bought launcher pro plus. if he implements that ill take a look into it again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyanogen:
Making a "pure" AOSP ROM isn't the goal- the goal is to make AOSP more awesome. ADW is based on the original Launcher app, and it's open source.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiicytuna:
You've got to re-detect your speed in setCPU.

menu > Device Selection > Autodetect Speeds Recommended

For those who may not know how to do this I am going to write up a quick blurb. Here's how I got my log file to cyanogen. There are two (and probably more) ways to do this and it all depends on what you prefer or find easiest. Personally, Option #1 lost some of the formating for me so I did the more involved Option #2.

Option #1

1. Download aLogcat from the market

2. Launch the aLogcat

3. Go launch the program thats crashing, allow it to crash

4. Go back to aLogcat

5. Menu -> Send

6. Email it to yourself, then post it on here for cyanogen

Option #2

1. Hook your phone to your computer with the usb cable

2. With your fav CLI type: "adb shell logcat > crashlog.txt" (w/o the " ")

3. On the EVO launch the program that's causing problems, allow it to crash

4. In the CLI hit "crtl+c" (to stop the logging process)

5. In the same folder as adb will be a text file called "crashlog.txt"

6. Post it on here so that cyanogen + group can take a look at it

See above.

I'm still trying to get used to ADW launcher. Can I get some help? When I long press the app drawer launcher "grid" I see little arrows to drag it up. Once I do that I only have the dockbar and I don't understand how to get the launcher bar back (the one with the "grid" and left and right action buttons) the only way to get it back is to reboot. I searched for a instruction guide for ADW but came up short. I like the dockbar idea but keep losing the app grid which I need to access all my apps.

Yeah for being so early, this ROM is amazing. I have enjoyed it more than any other one I have tried (at least 4 or 5 now). I can't wait to see what comes of it when it matures more. I'm now using the Snap kernel, and it seems like battery life has even gone up. I am at 49% now, and it has been off the charger for 15 hours or so. That even includes flashing the Snap kernel, installing a few apps, one or two phone calls, probably 20 SMS messages, and reading a few emails. Typical daily use on my phone for this part of the day, so I'm excited.

im amazed at the battery stats some of you guys are posting. Mine is absolutely awful. First of all, i have a seidio 1750 Mah battery. Im lucky if the phone lasts 5 hours. I woke up around 10 am this morning, and took it off the charger at about 100%. Installed a few apps, browsed the internet a little, made no phone calls. tahts it. by 2:30, the phone was down to 12%. I have cm6 running with the cyan powerup v2. Not overclocked. CM6 nexus live wallpaper running. beatiful home, mixzing, slacker radio, audible, switchpro, and audio manager widgets running. do the widgets really drain the power that fast? or could it be something else? also, i dont have wifi enabled, just sync and gps. autobrightness as well.

anyone have any input on this? or perhaps some advice on how to get the most out of my battery?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hodedofome:
You will know if your apps are draining your battery in the background if you turn off data sync. It's the arrows going around in a circle on the Power Control Widget. What other radios do you have turned on? Try going a day with just the data radio turned on (the arrows going up and down). I used to have battery life like yours until I went through all my apps and turned off all the automatic syncing. I don't stay signed in to google talk/fring or anything else like that either.

If anything on my phone crashed, I'd post it but I've been real lucky. I guess everyone's phone is not exactly the same. I got the hulu fix and it's running awesome. I also downloaded psx4droid and it is AWESOME. Got FFVII and IX running smooth (gotta set fps to 30 from within the emulator for it to run well).

I've already submitted my donations. With every build that comes out now, I'm almost afraid to flash b/c I've got everything running so damn good now I don't wanna screw it up!

Thanks so much cyan and thanks to this group, you've all been great in dealing with this madness!! Here's to the RC--hopefully we'll get hdmi out to work for things other than the gallery and youtube.;)

BTW, with the browser (I saw this isue posted before) when I close all my windows, I get a force close. Don't mind it so much b/c it does stop the app from running when I'm not going to use it. It'd be nice though, to have a way to "exit" the app (like dolphin HD) without the FC.
